I love the feeling of a bottom turn on a wave and then straightening out and getting spat out!
Yup, it’s up there with the best!
Your tutorials are very in-depth and great examples
Thanks bru 🙏🏼
Thanks so much for all the amazing videos, you’re such a legend! Keep shredding 🌊
well done Ian, great explanations and video examples
Many thanks!
I know it's far easier said than done but I hope you get better soon dude so you can keep on keeping on!(:
Thanks legend. Better everyday. Just got to keep pushing!
Top man, great vid!
Bottom turning a big wave just feels so good. Or when the drop feels like its just going to keep going forever as you bounce down the face. Great feelings forsure.
Definitely one of the best feelings and rush you can get.
Great Iain!
Your explanations with slow motion are really explicit 👍
Comments and videos are the best combo to explain 👌
You are on the right way 😉
Thanks for us to take the time to explain all that basics tricks.
Awesome, thanks! Glad you liked it!
Your content is in a league of its own. Keep it up!
Thanks man 🙏🏼
Thanks for the tip! Sometimes in bigger waves I end up sliding a little bit through the wave, although I can recover from that, it just doesn’t feel right and I end up losing a lot of speed, now I understand how I need to aproach to a certain type of wave! Gonna put that to practice!
Good luck and let me know how it goes!
Thanks Ian for shearing your knowkedge and all the time you take editing all videos thanks
A lot more to come 😉🙏🏼
Really thankful for your tutoring videos my man. They really help me
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Nice one Iain. Great advice, I've started bodyboarding again..... to complement my bodysurfing. Your videos are all so cool and helpful. Thank you bru.
Thanks very much. Appreciate that.
This is GOLD 😊
Thank you 🤙✨️🙏
Glad you enjoyed it!
You need more subscribers
Tell me about it 🤣🤣
Thanks man
great work buddy! can see the effort you put into these and they turn out great.
Thanks so much bru 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for the info. Big hug from Sintra. 🤙
It’s a pleasure. Glad you enjoyed it. 🤙🏼
Superb video Iain i picked up a few tips from this.Thanks again and stay safe 👍
It’s a pleasure man. Glad I could help. Keep ripping 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Best teacher!! Always helpful... Hope u feeling better, recover soon 💪💪💪🤙

Great video man 🙌🏽🌊
Thank you
Cool bro
Bodyboard Power!
Yesss.
that second wave at pipe... perfection
It was a goodie for sure!
Not sure this if this was on my request, but thank you for this video!
A few people had been asking about paddling into waves and direction so thought this could help. Happy you found it useful.
finally the vid I've been waiting for
Hope it helps bru 🤙🏼
@@iaincampbell_ it sure helps me!
Perfect timing
Thanks
Good instruction clip..
Glad you enjoyed it 🤙🏼
I just realized I was doing the scoop and I didn't even know what it was I guess it was just the natural thing to do
Sick, that’s best for riding really steep waves so if that’s what you’re surfing than no surprise…
I’ll give it a gooo!
Damn that first clip of the wave though was awesome
Thanks man 🙏🏼
Yoooo 🐐🐐🐐
Sick hoodie!
Thanks man. Available at boogieeveryday.com 😉
hey iain! could you please make a video talking about paddling in during big swells? especially for places with shallow breaks, endless sets, and a ripping current! and maybe for when you lose your board and just rely on your trusty fins. that's a lot to ask for haha but thank you!
Hahaha. That’s a lot! But I have made a number of different tutorial style videos that could help. First the duck diving bigger waves: th-cam.com/video/L4HWS6JjBsM/w-d-xo.html
And then go and check out this about rip currents: th-cam.com/video/7SUo1G6q37M/w-d-xo.html
If you have any other questions after those two, hit me up... and we can discuss some more.
Hey Ian,
Is their anyway that you can create a video explaining how to learn tricks on the opposite side ?
By this I mean that Im used to surf to my left side and most tricks like backflip and ARS are easier to practice on that side. But for some reason to my right side Im able to do tricks I cant regularly do to the left. Like the invert or forward spin. But yeah mate a vid of this would help a lot. 🏄🏾♂️🍺
I hate to tell you but you need to just start to ride the other direction and get comfortable. That way you will be able to go both ways and do mores like that.
Not really something I can teach but more you have to just keep trying.
Thanks for the great insights and breakdown. Appreciate how you include good examples with the verbal cures. One big question I have is about when to transition my hips forward from the kicking position (catching the wave) to projecting forward to gain more speed for a powerful bottom turn. Do you move forward as you begin the drop, during the drop down the face or as you start the turn? I'd love to see a video on this when you get the chance.
I just did one recently that may help you with regards to this and speed… maybe it will help you. 🤙🏼
Super interesting man, was looking for a boogie teacher since a long time and you are prety good :)
Pretty good😂
Haha. Thanks man.
Glad I can help. There is way more tutorial videos if you’re interested. 🤙🏼
My buddy recently got his new board and started riding! Any basic beginner tips I can give him while we are out?
I have a ton of tutorial videos. Start with bodyboard basics and work through them. Should help.
Hi there Iain, big fan of your videos and skills here! Thanks a lot! Would you say a stiff or very stiff bodyboard makes it harder to bottom turn/scoop in, as in not being able to do a tighter turn/scoop and having to draw it out more?
Thanks for watching along. I would say it makes it a bit harder for sure. A bit better when the board has some flex and allows you to bottom turn easier…
Any tips for draining slabs? Eg tand or something like cyclops?
I did do a video explaining steeper waves and using your legs more. Gets a bit more advanced but will send the link:
th-cam.com/video/dQfpsfzSyWU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0ARRL8a8EpWrv7_P
Whats a good, helpful way to practice these techniques, when i try to bottom turn, I either don't get enough speed to get out of the barrel, or I just get completely pitted. Also I sometimes feel that when I try to take off a really steep and heavy barrel, I end up completely getting launched off the lip of the wave if that kind of makes sense. If you could give me some advice on these I would really appreciate it, thanks. I'm only starting to ride some of my local reef breaks after building some confidence haha.
You need to paddle a lot harder into waves. Seems the lack of speed is because you can’t get enough speed at the start of the wave. By paddling harder into waves you will have the extra speed you need. 🤙🏼
@@iaincampbell_ ok perfect, Il take note of that. Thanks for your help.
G'day Iain, can you please do a video explaining the short, sharp near-vertical redirection turns pros manage to do but most of us average riders cannot fathom?
eg. say at 4:43, if the section starts to shut down faster than anticipated, pros seem to be able to reset in a split second to instead aim for the lip above them rather than the ramp they were aiming at further down the line. I've talked with other riders with 30+ years experience who also have this issue, possibly because we grew up in an age of studying print mags and have always drawn out bottom turns.
I believe I've noticed a quick flattening of the board and then an inward change of focus before resetting the rail? Almost a little like setting up for a forward spin then re-engaging with the board now pointing up/into the wave face rather than down the line?
In these situations I'd just get stuck trying to turn even harder, which just bogs and doesn't redirect "vertically", I think perhaps it needs a complete mental change to the way us older folk turn, a flatten-then-redirect rather than a "turn harder"?
There definitely is a movement that we are doing to redirect. Of course the flatter the board the more speed so when pulling up on the rail like that it does effect speed. I’ll have to look into this a bit more because I don’t have an answer for you right now. 🤣👌🏼
Hey iain, I live in San Diego, and since you’ve been to the west coast, if I wanted to bottom run the different west coast waves, what would I do differently compared to another wave in another area?
Nothing different. Watch the video and make sure your hand positions are in the right place.
Hey man what do you think a reliable brand of boards for tropical water and prone
Sniper Bodyboard all the way. Shipping worldwide.
sniperbodyboards.com/collections/iain-pro-series
I’m assuming you take the shockwave back through the wave?
Hey Ian...I always heard starting your bottom turn when about 2/3 down the wave face...is this correct info?....thanks
There is no right or wrong way to do this. That may work for some waves but definitely won’t work for all waves. I would suggest rather going on feeling than getting too technical.
im the person that always wishes yo well on insta. How you doin man
I’m getting better thanks Mike. Almost back to where I want to be. Long process when it comes to the gut but I know I’m on the right path.
Yeah mate! Keep em coming! It's 2am here and I can't sleep and even though I know how to boog but always a great watch!(:
🤙🏼🤙🏼
Iain perdona pero si entendi bien haces la bajada antes de entrar en el tubo lenta con el cuerpo para atras y cuando ya haces el botton turn te tiras para adelante para dar velocidad ?
Yes that is correct… 👌🏼
Yo Ian sick video. Hey I got this problem when I start the bottom turn. I hit my shoulder into the wave and spray goes everywhere. You loose speed and is Super annoying. How can I fix this?
Shoulder relocation?
How do you duck five back into the wave in a close out like you do in some clips
I think you’re talking about when I do the duck out of waves after moves? Haha. Will do a video. It’s pretty easy but got to learn where the wave has less power and go there.
Shot really wanting to get better at it... yew 🤙🔥
🤙🏼🤙🏼
Hi Iain and greetings from France,
I have been practising some 2-3 Meter barrels in Hossegor South France recently. Had some Problems therefore I have some questions:
1. What do you recommrnd would be the perfect timing to paddle for a big barrel wave. Should it have the form as a more decent "Mountain" or almost a more steep wall? When i Start paddling the steep wall it seems almost to late as it picks me up und pulls me up to the top of the wave to Slam me down steep with the lip.
Maybe you can explain some points about the perfect timing to paddle on a wave.
I prefere paddling a wave as soon as possible because those steep walls rising make me feel that it's going to end up Bad for me, especially the big waves.
Smaller waves are no Problem for me.
2. When you Start paddling for a wave, Do you only use youre feet? As I Was into Surfing, I like using my Arms to paddle for the wave, also I have the impression that I am faster with feet and Arms together. But the Problem it brings with it is, that when the wave gets me startet I have to reposition my Arms correctly on the Board as you once explainend (left turn=left arm 90degree Holding the left upper nose part etc.....)
When I watch your takeoffs you only seem to use your feet to catch the wave and have already positioned your Arms correctly......
The earlyer I want to catch a wave the more speed I need, therefore I also need my Arms to support my feet. Maybe I am too early with my takeoffs or my leg Power is too weak.
2. How do you get out a barrel when it's a closeout wave aspecially often at shorebreaks without injuring yourself? I can not get out those barrels without getting smashed because neither there is a escape possibility on the left nor on the right side........ So it means to me getting in the barrel and then shortly after beeing in the pipe getting slamed.
3.
I am often afraid to get the top of a massive barrel on my back when I get pushed out of it. What can I do to avoid this? Especially at closeout with no escape option.
(technique for beginner)
4. What about typical unjuries in bodyboarding? What is there to Look after or watch out? especially back and neck?
Best regards from France
Hi, thanks for the message and all the questions.
1. When paddling for waves you need to make the decision early. Learning how to take off on steeper waves is also key. But my suggestion is always to paddle earlier in order to get on the wave and start moving down the wave.
2. The key with paddling is to use your legs and maybe one arm. The other will be on the nose of the board pushing down to get the board as flat as possible. This will also allow you to have the position ready when you have caught the wave. The technique will help you be able to position better and allow for easier and quicker start to your ride…
3. I have made a video about falling in the barrel that may help you: th-cam.com/video/ce3WQHipgBg/w-d-xo.html
4. Try not to go straight when the wave is closing out and you won’t worry about the wave landing on your back. If you have the speed you can do it but if not, focus on riding into the close out and not straight!
5. I wouldn’t worry too much about the back. Neck for sure as well as shoulders. When doing moves try to keep your elbows tucked into the side of your body which will help prevent injury. And always do a short warm up before you go surf.
Enjoy the ocean and keep bodyboarding 🤙🏼
@@iaincampbell_ thank you so much for your help and the time you take to help and get us bodyboarders going.
I follow your Videos.
Your dedication ist much appreciated.
Let me know when you are planning to come to Europe, I will try to organize you a place to stay for free.
If you want massive barrels, come to South France Hossegor or Biarritz in October. You wont regret. Portugal is also massive even in sommertime.
So for the wedge style waves it's much more digging in rails and body weight rather than legs? I think that's the takeaway for those waves right?
All depends where you are on the wedge and what you’re looking to do. If you going for airs then follow that, if you’re in the zone and about to get barrelled, use your legs.
@@iaincampbell_ great shout, thanks Iain! Great content as always, thanks for teaching us all!
It’s an absolute pleasure. Happy to help!
You should come ride at Hermanus .
Its got a really shallow bank with nice heavy barrels
For the next 3 days in the early morning or late evening the waves are really big .
8-10 ft faces
Onrus beach is the beach the place im referring to
I’m not surfing at the moment bru. Been too sick unfortunately... hopefully be back soon.
Ay bru i saw on your last upload .
With ur latest upload i thought u had recovered , best of luck. Hope u get well soon
Thanks my bru. Appreciate it.
Bottom turn into a barrel best feeling In the world
Yes sir!!!
You should try sharky in maunabo puerto rico
I would love to at some time.
@@iaincampbell_ it's a hidden spot the local we use with a good left small waves 2 to 3 feet but flat water
Yeye
I always slide out still never been in and out of a barrell just swallowed up or sliding out all the time
Will try to put my inside leg down more and see if that helps I was worried that would slow me down too much
Hi from the Sunshine Coast in Australia 👍
It might but maybe try shifting your hips more to the corner of the board and see if that helps. It may just be your position and weight distribution on the board.
@@iaincampbell_ thanks for that tip that makes sense I think my weight is always centrered on the board so the rail might not be digging in properly
Thanks for responding! Legend! I'll try it first thing tomorrow great waves here at the moment 👍
Hope you can get back out there soon
Check the other video that I linked and talk about. I have linked it below but it explains the movement on the board and may help you.

@@iaincampbell_ thanks bro I just watched it again I had before but must have forgotten a lot of details, I think I have to keep rewatching them as I progress
I tried your tip today omg had the best fun was able to fly down the line really tight and control where I want to be on every wave and got 1 sweet barrell and was grinning ear to ear thanks mate!! 🤙🤙
@@whoozworldizthis4221 Glad to hear it... hopefully you can start to put those into practice and see results...
how did you manage to try to explain bottom turns without talking about the inside rail and outside hand pulling up on the outside rail.
Watch the bodyboard basics video...
Do you boogie board kommetjie beach
Some times when I am in the Kom but not too often to be honest.
Thst is a monster u are dropping in on. People don’t realize how shallow the break is if u don’t make that wave ur probably really fucked
Yes and no. Depends how you fall in the barrel. Sometimes you just don’t hit the reef.
